Chapter 665 Meeting the Master (2)
Chapter 665 Meeting the Master (2)
Mia was the most timid, and she quickly ran to Chonglou for shelter, and so did the other demons.
In their opinion, the character played by Chonglou, Kenquil, was the master closest to him and had the highest status in the Demon Hunting Bureau, so it would definitely be safe to follow him.
Soon, a bluestone road appeared, leading directly to the palace in the center of the island. On both sides of the road, there were two stone sculptures every five meters. They were a man and a woman, both of them were strong demons with wings on their backs, holding up a huge torch to illuminate the crowd.
This was obviously the design of the street lamp, but the well-informed Kurad couldn't help but exclaimed, "These stone sculptures are all demon kings, with such a powerful aura... They are all demon kings of the same level as me, and they have all turned into stone sculptures and become lights on the road..."
Everyone gasped when they heard this. The distance from the edge of the island to the central palace was at least several hundred meters long, which meant that there were hundreds of third-order or higher demon kings who had been made into stone sculptures by the Lord, providing illumination forever!
What a masterpiece, what a background, and what an arrogance!
Compared to the shock of other demons, Kurad only felt fear. He understood the most, so his body began to tremble unconsciously. He was afraid that he would become a street light here.
No one, including Chonglou, knew that they were in a dream. They just thought that they had traveled to a mysterious yet real space. The reality of the dream depended entirely on the dream-making ability of the dreamer. And now, the owner of this dream was Bai Hao, the only god here.
"Meet your only master!"
An old and majestic voice exploded in everyone's heart, as shocking as the sound of a huge bell.
Everyone trembled, and then a winged demon god dozens of meters tall fell from the sky, and the ground shook. He held a trident in his hand and claimed to be the master's servant, who came to lead the way.
"follow me."
Kurad looked up at the gigantic demon god in horror; the boundless and terrifying pressure made it difficult for him to breathe.
Level 4? No, they are all at least level 5!
But beneath the fear and anxiety is the longing. Kurad hopes that he can become such a powerful being one day, and the strength displayed by Bai Hao now proves that he has followed the right person.
Kurad believed that as long as he performed well enough, he might be rewarded by his master and be able to make a breakthrough.
This is very possible, because a guiding servant is a fifth-order primordial demon, and it is hard to imagine how powerful this master is.
However, what Kurade didn't know was that this fifth-order primordial demon was merely created by Bai Hao in his dream. Whether it was his body shape or his magical pressure, they were all carefully designed by Bai Hao just to scare Kurade.
These demons did not know that this was the effect of a lucid dream. To them, this was reality, and it was Bai Hao's unfathomable strength.
Soon, the ten people, led by servants, arrived in front of the palace. They still needed to climb ninety-nine steps. With every step they took, there would be a violent roar of thunder in the sky, which made everyone frightened and they took every step carefully.
Entering the interior of the hall, what comes into view are twelve statues of gods that are dozens of meters high. They are neatly arranged on both sides, and all of them are carved vividly. Everyone knows what these stone statues are. They are the twelve high-sequence main gods of the divine world!
Bai Hao sat quietly in the main seat in the middle. He was tall and sturdy, and his height of nearly 100 meters was extremely oppressive. At this moment, he was wearing a black and red cloak, holding his cheek with one hand, looking at the ten people who came in lazily and casually.
Such a layout is thought-provoking. The twelve high-order main gods are ranked below like ministers, and they all respect Bai Hao. Moreover, these stone statues are all standing, only Bai Hao is sitting comfortably, which further illustrates the huge gap in status.
The ten people who came in were not stupid demons. They immediately understood everything and their respect for Bai Hao became even deeper. The various experiences they had along the way made them submit from the bottom of their hearts.
So, the ten people knelt down directly without Bai Hao even having to say anything.
They saluted respectfully, performing the most humble nine-bow ceremony in the demon world, all of which were extremely standard. Among them, Kurad was the most pious. This third-order original demon had obviously become Bai Hao's little fanboy.
"This is our first meeting. You are very lucky, much luckier than most demons. Being the first generation members of the Demon Hunting Bureau is the most generous reward I can give you."
Bai Hao's tone was calm, his face showed no sadness or joy, but none of the ten people dared to look up at him, because looking directly at a venerable was generally considered rude. This behavior made Bai Hao very satisfied. It seemed that all his previous preparations had worked.
"I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. Those who work for me will be rewarded, and it is a reward that cannot be measured with gold coins." Bai Hao's tone turned cold, and he looked at the ten nervous people and said slowly: "But if you disobey me, or even betray the Demon Hunting Bureau, then I will bring down divine punishment on you, a divine punishment that will make you suffer unbearable pain!"
Everyone nodded in agreement when they heard this. They did not doubt the truthfulness of Bai Hao's words at all. If someone with such terrifying strength really betrayed the Demon Hunting Bureau, there would be no safe place in the entire demon world.
Afterwards, the ten people reported the intelligence they had collected and investigated respectively. Bai Hao just listened silently in the main seat, and occasionally asked questions about some of the reports. Everyone would immediately give a respectful reply.
At present, there are far more than ten demon members in the Demon Hunting Bureau, and there are hundreds of them. The demons will develop their own subordinates, and then the subordinates will develop their own subordinates, thus forming a pyramid network. Bai Hao is at the top of the pyramid of the Demon Hunting Bureau branch in the demon world.
Regarding the system of the Demon Realm Branch of the Demon Hunting Bureau, Bai Hao adopted a strict promotion system, introducing the performance review system of the Campbell Secret Guards and the military merit assessment system in the barracks. The combination of the two allows the Demon Hunting Bureau to operate in an orderly manner.
Today's dream meeting was not only to report on work, but also to determine some job arrangements, such as the violence department responsible for supervising law enforcement, the affairs department responsible for overall planning, and the logistics department responsible for material control...
A mature large organization must have extremely strict division of labor management, with each department having its own responsibilities and functions being passed down layer by layer. It is not allowed to interfere beyond one's authority, nor to use public power for personal gain. Everything must be done according to the rules.
To this end, Bai Hao had already written an extremely detailed set of rules and regulations for the Demon World Branch of the Demon Hunting Bureau, which contained many methods for dealing with special situations. Bai Hao could not always be online, so he had to let the demons learn to manage themselves to ensure the smooth operation of the Demon Hunting Bureau.
"Kurad."
"My subordinate is here!"
Seeing Kurad respond respectfully, Bai Hao nodded gently and said, "I appoint you as the head of the law enforcement department of the Demon Hunting Bureau. Your duty is to ensure that the rules and regulations are not violated by anyone. I have high expectations of you..."
There is no doubt that the most suitable person to manage the discipline of the Demon Hunting Bureau now is the strongest Kurad. With the strength of a third-order original demon, he can perfectly suppress everyone.
In order to prevent the Kurad family from becoming the dominant force, Chonglou, who had signed a master-servant contract with them, was put in charge of the government affairs department, and another descendant of a third-level demon king family was put in charge of the overall coordination department for tasks.
The three powers are separated and check and balance each other to avoid the phenomenon of Bai Hao's power being hollow.
With this arrangement, the Demon Hunting Bureau can operate on its own and collect intelligence on the demon world in a stable and efficient manner.
